Found the above picture on a Ferrari forum. I really love the look on this Prius. I have an '09 Touring Pkg 6 with 10% tint on all windows. I am getting black wheels put on this week and intend on customizing the emblems and front grille. My idea right now is to paint the emblems black and replace the blue accent on the "HYBRID" emblem with red. Will post pics as soon as I get it done. Let me know what you think.
Looks good, as far as your idea of painting the emblems black and the blue wave red, I had that idea back in October i think. I got a set of emblems off of Ebay, had them painted and marked with red. Didn't come out too good. The blue on the emblem doesn't hold paint at all. Only way I can think of doing it is replacing the entire blue plastic piece with a red one
Good for show, but looks risky to drive such deeply-darken car at night or heavy down pour....the visibility from inside and out are equally sub-par. Too stealthy on the roads afterall.
Hmm, the dead flat finish is interesting... Could it be black primer, the infamous "American racing black?" Hardly, it's probably an "overlaminate" film. See this: http://www.mactac.com/fileadmin/user_upload/Graphic/Sales_Literature/MAC2640A_Auto_Matte_Trends.pdf
